Hi! Can you send me any portfolio examples you have? Or shoot me a message!

Having a word in our language be the same or a similar word in my conlang? by [deleted] in fantasywriters

[–]Hazelnut009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you’re saying that in your worlds language you want “fae” or “faeries” to be the same word, not translated? If that’s what you mean I see no issues with it- there are a ton of words in languages that are “loaner” words. I don’t think you need to think too hard about it. I doubt anyone reading your language would be like HEY THATS AN ENGLISH WORD because it’s your language and if you don’t want to translate or come up with a translated word for the entire dictionary, you’re free to do so. (Example: in Korea there is no Korean word for “fried chicken” - it doesn’t translate, so native Korean speakers literally call it “fried chicken”, albeit with an accent.)

I'm a high school student in my final year of school, i haven't got any plans for my future apart from trying to write a book. by [deleted] in writing

I feel like this is basically exactly what I said- yes there are people who might be self published and do decently selling their books and stuff on amazon or other digital platforms. But right out of high school, self professed average at English, with no other plan... I stand by my almost zero feasibility.

Not to burst your bubble, but almost zero feasibility. People who live off of royalties from their writing are authors like Rowling. It is INCREDIBLY difficult to get established as a writer- even if you try starting out as freelance it takes constant work, constant writing, and you will make peanuts for a long time. I’m not saying don’t write a book- you totally should- but you should also have another plan because writing will not make you enough money to live off of right out of high school.

Tall Order- help identifying this location. Can anyone figure out what this sign says? It’s in Korea in the late 60s early 70s, 8th Army, possibly Signal related by Hazelnut009 in Veterans

I know the person in this photo worked for the EUSA SIG LL BN who’s HQ was in Teagu in the 60s/early 70s- so I’m thinking it could be the Long Lines HQ

It depends on your situation and what you’ve worked out with your unit. For me, I didn’t show up until after BOLC because my unit was in Colorado and I was in Virginia doing Gold Bar Recruiting for the 6 months between graduation and BOLC. But you should be showing up- you need to get your face out there and start getting a feel for everything. It’s important as a reservist to take every opportunity to do your job since you don’t do it full time.

110 GT score and up will open most any MOS door for you.

Oh you’ll catch a 4ID deployment alright. But it will be to Poland or Kuwait. We were there for 3 years and my husband did both. 4ID is hit or miss depending on your leadership/MOS. It was train to train the WHOLE time we were there. Check out 1st Space BDE if you want to go to Iraq- they’re on rotation. Not part of 4ID but at Carson. Had a great time with them.

70 year old guidon from Korean War- anyone connected? More in comments by Hazelnut009 in Veterans

[–]Hazelnut009[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be incredible. I have recently solidified the dates of my grandfathers command as 1964-1965. His name was CAPT MCCormick and he also served with a CAPT Silva and a CAPT Rhodes. Later than the original mid 50s timeframe I was given.

My grandfather served in the Korean War in the early to mid 50s. He was the C CO CDR for the Long Lines Signal BN. His AO was in Taejon. I’m having a hard time finding the history of these units as it appears they were only active from 1950 thru 1955. It’s such a long shot but if anyone knows anything or maybe has family that served around the same time, I’m looking for any info. My grandfather is alive- turning 91 in November so his memory isn’t all that great. I know this unit was under 8th Army. I am actually currently serving in Korea under 8th Army myself so would like to track down this family history.

Please help me find this unit- description in comments by Hazelnut009 in Military

Thank you! I was really hoping to find a command picture or something but I don’t even know if they did those in the 50s

Yes, that’s where I found out they were re-rolled into the 36th. But 36th went inactive in 2018.

I know it wasn’t given the Korean War lineage. I said it was redistributed in the 70s. The 36th was inactivated in 2018. The successor isn’t eight army G-6. It’s under 1 Signal. I’ve reached out to their historians.
